[G4] Opinions wanted on 1.25 SP

[Tony Gamble]

Hi, Jeff...
	I bought one for myself a few weeks ago, and I couldn't be happier!  
It's very quiet, stylish (of course.... it's a Mac) and very suitably 
quick for my audio production tasks.  It handles a significant number 
of software instruments in GarageBand very well; you can hear an 
example of this on a techno-classical piece I recorded recently:

	The only issue I had with the unit was the amount of RAM it comes 
with.  I've found that OS X really wants as close to 512Mb minimum as 
possible.  The SP only comes with 256, so that was the first thing I 
improved upon.
